In this paper we analyze when a space of continuous functions Cp(X,Y) is weakly pseudocompact where X and Y are such that Cp(X,Y) is dense in YX. We prove: (1) For spaces X and Y such that X has property DY and Y is first countable weakly pseudocompact and not countably compact, the following conditions are equivalent: (i) Cp(X,Y) is weakly pseudocompact, (ii) Cp(X,Y) is O-pseudocomplete, and (iii) Cp(X,Y) is T-pseudocomplete. (2) For a space X and a compact metrizable topological group G such that X has property DG, the following statements are equivalent: (i) Cp(X,G) is pseudocompact, (ii) Cp(X,G) is weakly pseudocompact, (iii) Cp(X,G) is T -pseudocomplete, and (iv) Cp(X,G) is O-pseudocomplete. (3) For every space X , and
are not weakly pseudocompact. Throughout this study we also consider several completeness properties defined by topological games such as the Banach–Mazur game and the Choquet game.
